It's be awhile (like, a few years)... I'd like to release a
new version of
the python-mode package. Can someone give me a dummy's guide to that
process?
Hi Skip,
you would just update the source files in
packages/xemacs-packages/python-modes/
Please also update the .upstream files in that directory as necessary
to support traceability.
Don't forget (which I always do :-) of course) to update
AUTHOR_VERSION =
in packages/xemacs-packages/python-modes/MAKEFILE in your case, to
reflect the official upstream version number or name.
Don't touch
VERSION = 1.06
in that file.
Norbert, our Package Release Engineer, will bump that number as
necessary during pre-release, testing, fixing, and official release.
Finally, after you have built with
make distclean
and
make bindist
and installed and tested locally from some site-release area you may
have, ask Norbert to roll a pre-release.
That should be it.
See
http://www.xemacs.org/Develop/cvsaccess.html#committers
should you have any problems with your commit access.
Send mail to cvs-manager(a)xemacs.org in such a case.
Good Luck,
Adrian
